Install wpasupplicant by default on RISC-V images

Hello Alexandre, or anyone else affected,

Accepted livecd-rootfs into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/2.765.7 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

This bug was fixed in the package livecd-rootfs - 2.771

livecd-rootfs (2.771) kinetic; urgency=medium

  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * Drop support for building i386 images aside from the launchpad builder
    images.
  * Remove fwupd from the cloud images. LP: #1981109.

  [ Michael Hudson-Doyle ]
  * Fix some issues with the netboot tarballs:
    - Include the signed shim (oops).
    - Make the kernel path on disk and in the bootloader config match (more
      oops).
    - Make paths more architecture dependent as the code in grubnetXXX.efi to
      probe a platform dependent path first doesn't work.

  * Install wpasupplicant by default as for now, most of the RISC-V boards
    embed a Wifi chipset (LP: #1983008)

Thank you!

Alex confirmed that the change works fine on the visionfive latest dailies. I also made sure that the latest raspi images still had all their previously installed packages: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/jammy/daily-preinstalled/20220729/jammy-preinstalled-server-armhf+raspi.manifest

Let's get this released. That being said, we'll need a follow up upload as our previous livecd-rootfs release basically broke some jammy RISC-V cloud builds. But it's irrelevant to this upload here.
